Abstract
One of the origins of the independent growth of a dimer row at the S-B step on the reconstructed (001) surface was elucidated to be the dien e structure of the S-B step type I. The potential energy changes follo wing the single adatom migration as well as the adatom cluster migrati on were calculated in detail and the corresponding surface structure c hanges were shown. The missing dimer formation at the S-B step edge wa s explained by the cluster migration mechanism.
